afc: Normalize URL better

Kai Uwe Broulik requested to merge work/kbroulik/afc-sanitize-name-better into master

According to RFC 1738 there's additional unsafe characters, such as curly brackets, pipe, quotes, etc that are disallowed for host names.

Just filter all non-word characters to avoid them slipping in.

BUG: 462381


I don't fully understand why the fallback doesn't work in the bug report but this should make cases like apostrophes work.

Any non-Latin1 character is replaced by a question mark "?" by toLatin1, so those are also filtered this way.

The underscore used as replacement for space is preserved by this regex.
